My Publix Trip - Paid $2, Saved $108

The most exciting part of this trip was getting some new socks! And with no coupon! Besides that it's mostly stockpile stuff like oatmeal and soups for the fall. We don't get many kids coming around for Halloween but I figured I would just hand out the Lindt truffles for candy and skip buying any other Halloween candy. I'm bummed that there aren't any more Save A Lot coupons and now must dig into my Winn Dixie stash of $5 off $30 coupons. I could have gotten a gas card but we got over a dozen last time a couple weeks ago, so I skipped that deal. I did see that others have gotten the Silver Floss sauerkraut for $0.69 but in my store it was $0.89, so with the $0.75/1 pdf coupon it would have only cost fourteen cents - but DH vetoed that idea. I'll probably go back to get more socks though. Anyway, it ended up costing $0.53 plus tax for a total of $2.03, with a savings of $107.93.

Publix- My Essentials Rebate Trip

I've been on the lookout for the new "Get More from Your Essentials" coupon booklet with $10 rebate wyb $30 of product in one trip. I was able to get a few from customer service at two stores, but the other stores were out already. So, if you haven't found it yet, you may be out of luck. Anyway, I did one trip using some competitor coupons from Sweetbay and Target and the store allowed multiple competitor coupons per transaction. This is not always the case and you need to plan your trips depending on the policy enforced by the different store managers.

 

I bought 4 toilet paper and 4 pinesol to meet the requirements of the rebate. The other items were simply to bring up my total to $50 so I could use a $5 off $50 PQ. I also threw in four of the Sweetbay $2/2 any purchase coupons that I had from the free spanish paper last week. So to qualify for the rebate I purchased $31.92. The rebate is valid 10/13-11/9 and states "Limit maximum (2) gift card per person, per mailing address."

 

In the end, I spent $1.65, saving $63.75. And I will get a $10 rebate.

My Publix Trip - Saved 95%

We're still eating Papa Johns pizza since that Ray's 10 Strikeout promotion ended last weekend, so we didn't need to buy so much salad stuff. This trip was to restock on some cleaning supplies and use up those One Stop, One Store coupons that expire this weekend. The one item I wanted to get for sure was the Baileys coffee creamer before the current Yellow Advantage Buy coupon expires today. When stacking the MQ printable with the YAB PQ, there is a $1 overage on each one. I also managed to find some of the sale priced Cover Girl eyeshadows that provide a little overage. Only some of them are discounted, so I did a price check at the self checkout to verify it was $1.99 rather than $2.99. The store also had plenty of the Robitussin so I picked up 4, which is the limit on the MQs that can be used in one transaction.

 

I wish the gas card deal were still on, since my order was over $100 I could have gotten a couple more. But oh well, I got plenty to pay for our gas til the next sale. The order totaled $107, but after coupons it was down to $2.25 plus tax for a 95% savings. I ended up spending $5.49 on my Publix gift card.
